标题：XI Congreso De Ingeniería Del Transporte (CIT 2014) Environmental Performance of Brazilian Container Terminals: A Data Envelopment Analysis Approach
摘要：AbstractDespite being critical for economic development, port operations cause environmental impacts. Therefore, this article aims to evaluate the performance of Brazilian container terminals establishing a ranking based on ecoefficiency performance. Documental and bibliographic researches were carried out to gather the necessary data. So, a data envelopment analysis model was applied as a support tool to evaluate the ports’ performances. As result, four ports were considered benchmarks, which mean that they reached 100% as relative ecoefficiency. Besides, we determine how much each non-ecoefficient terminal must be improved and what they should do better in order to reach the ecoefficiency frontier.
